Hope
I make myself a noose of despair
as I stand on this chair made of hope;
I fix the noose around my neck
and pull taut on the rope.
As I kick hope away, despair grabs my throat
causing my neck to give;
Because without hope, despair always wins
killing the spirit to live.

Great! You need to change your pen-name, it's no longer a secret that you're a poet, and a really good one at that!
